00 Fog lights replacement HOWTO!?!?!

DracoGT · 07-16-2005, 01:51 PM

Hi there! need some help!

Just came back from a 3 hour search-shopping for the headlights & fog lights Xenon-like bulbs.. finally found some really good brand ones at a reasonable price.

I just installed the headlights bulbs, working great! but when i was to start the replacement procedure on the fog lights, i dont know where the heck to start!!

What is the procedure to replace the fog lights bulbs!! i mean i dont know how to REACH the danr fog lights!

Any help would be VERY well appriciated.. if any1 knows a link with instructions please lte me know!

Thanx!

Fog lights are pretty easy to replace. There are mud flaps on the inside area of the fog lights on each side. Pull those back and grab in there and twist and pull out the bulb. You can also go from the back of the bottom peice of the bumper which is a little tougher.
Whatever you do, dont touch the bulb with your bare skin. It can shatter the glass or drasticly reduce the bulbs life.

Great thanx, ill try that now... btw i bought the 9007's for headlights and the 880's for fog.

Neutron Autosports bulbs, any1 knows if they are good?

MattJ · 07-16-2005, 02:21 PM

If you look at the wattage the pull, its a bit higher that stock bulbs 80/100...I had some similar to those before and they burned my headlight wiring harness! Don't put those on your stang!

Holy F#&%!!!

Sure ill take some pictures tonight, and then remove the bastards AHHAH

Well ill order the ones you recommened, and put the stock ones back.. i certenly dont want to burn mine!

Thanx for the advise!

I cant find the silverstar fogs ANYWHERE! I went to autozone and advance today and couldnt find em. MattJ where you get em and where would you order em from online if you had too?

MattJ · 07-17-2005, 02:47 PM

You have to use silverstar 880s for your fog lights. You can get em on ebay for half the price you can in stores.
